The offensive line is a unit that impacts the entire offense as a whole.
It protects the quarterback, opens up holes for running backs, and gives wide receivers time to get downfield in routes. For Rutgers, this has been a weakness for two years since Greg Schiano returned but it is hoping to have depth this season.
“I think we’re getting better on the front,” Schiano said following practice on Monday. “It’s by inches but we’re getting better. That’s just going to have to be a steady climb the entire season for us to be effective in our schedule.
